drivers/ide: PATA driver for Celleb
This is the patch (based on 2.6.19-rc4) for PATA controller of Toshiba Cell reference set(Celleb). The reference set consists of Cell, 512MB memory, Super Companion Chip(SCC) and some peripherals such as HDD, GbE, etc. You can see brief explanation and picture of Cell reference set at following URLs. http://www.toshiba.co.jp/about/press/2005_09/pr2001.htm http://cell-industries.com/toshiba_announces.php We use a drivers/ide driver because its design is more suitable for SCC IDE controller than libata driver. Since SCC supports only 32bit read/write, we must override many callbacks of ata_port_operations by modifying generic helpers. Each time the libata common code is updated, we must update those modified helpers. It is very hard for us. But we will try to implement the libata driver as needed.
